  • A Year in Review: Working with Friends

    Being best friends doesn't necessarily mean you agree on everything.  Most times, you are friends because of what you do have in common.  But what happens when you take that common interest and all have different approaches to it?

    Join us (Janet and Sophia) as we reflect on the highlights and challenges of working together as friends, and how to maintain the friendship through it all.

    This isn't your typical "Girl Talk."

    Welcome to our conversations, unfiltered.  There’s only one rule: Heels Off Please!

  • Meeting the Parents - Preparing for the First Encounter

    Meeting your significant other's parents may be one of the scariest things in life.  "Just be yourself," they say.  "You'll be fine," they say... until you're not.  

    Growing up in a Western society, there are some mannerisms that just won't cut it with the older generations.  So, what is "right" or "wrong"?  Can you really just be yourself?   

    Join us (Janet and Sophia) as we share with some of our experiences meeting our (future) in-laws and some secrets to earn you those extra points--especially with Asian parents.

  • Residual Feelings - Are They Wrong?

    Residual feelings: feelings that remain after a relationship has ended. Sometimes this can be a good thing, giving you time to reflect on the journey that got you to where we are today. But other times, it may be paralyzing and prevents you from moving on with your day-to-day life, especially if there was no closure at the end.  

    Join us (Linda, Janet and Sophia) as we figure out if having residual feelings can be considered cheating, and if, by wanting closure, it means you still have those feelings.
